Salads with the addition of crab sticks have long taken pride of place on the tables of many housewives. This overseas product gives the dishes a delicate and savory taste. And the more you know interesting recipes for appetizers, the more varied your festive table will be.
I would like to share with you a recipe for a salad made from crab sticks, which is called "Extravaganza of taste". This appetizer is also called vinaigrette with crab sticks. And all because it contains boiled beets. In principle, this salad can be served both on a festive table and an everyday dinner.
- crab sticks - 200 g;
- medium-sized boiled beets - 2 pcs.;
- squids - 100 g;
- pickled cucumbers - 2 pcs.;
- boiled carrots - 1 pc.;
- onion - 1 head;
- vegetable oil - 3-4 tbsp. l.:
- salt to taste.
Chop the crab sticks as small as possible. Peel the beets and carrots and chop into squares of the same size. Chop the onion into thin half rings, chop the pickles into strips or cubes.
Rinse squids (if you have them freshly frozen) under running water, remove the warbler and immerse the carcass in boiling water for 60-90 seconds. It is not recommended to boil seafood longer, otherwise it will become "rubbery". Cut the cooled squid into strips. When all the ingredients are ready, combine them in a deep salad bowl, season with sunflower oil and spices to taste. Stir again and serve.
If you are going to serve a snack on a festive table, then you can put it on a flat plate, giving it some intricate shape. Or garnish the salad with sprigs of herbs, thinly sliced crab sticks, squid rings, olives. In general, choose the decoration for the dish depending on the occasion and your preferences.
